Profile Information

Born of farmer parents in a hencoop while mother was collecting
eggs, I was temporalily placed with the laying hens while mother
finished collecting the eggs of the day. It was then she noticed
my egg shaped head and she was delighted as that was her
favourite shape.

Attended Chicken Primary where we learned all about
chickens, hens, cocks and eggs. Not being clever enough to attend
secondary school my parents put me in charge of the chickens
where I learned to cackle like them.

As an adult I gave lessons at University teaching "cackling" to
students who wanted to communicate with chickens.

I`m interested in trying to stop the barbaric way we treat farm
animals, enclosing them in pens where they can`t enjoy the sun,
fresh air, the water and dust baths, being forcibly fed, in tiny
little pens where they can`t even lie down throughout their whole
life. Then we kill and eat them.

This treatment is reminiscent of the concentration camps we all
heard about, and it is the most cruel way to treat a creature who
has the same right as us humans to enjoy Nature. They are
made of the same elements as we are, star dust, may be
not so intelligent but, can you lay an egg?, can you find your
home when taken hundreds of miles away?, can you find somebody by
your sense of smell?, can you run as fast?, do these animals
encarcerate others in their millions in concentration camps?,
torturing them that way till they die?, no respite, no rest, no a
breathing space.....so who is the animal?..........and all for
what?, we still die and rot like them.

Yes, we have to eat other animals but the least thing we can do,
if we think we are more intelligent, is to let them enjoy Nature
as it is intended, and then kill them in a humane way, but to
torture them all their lives as well is an inhuman act completely
depleted of gratitude and compassion to a creature who is giving
us its body, its whole being, for us to live, and who shares the
same Earth as we do. Nature never intended to be like that, our
so call intelligence hasn`t helped us very much to preserve
Nature`s integrity, not only we are destroying it with
pollution, but in that process we also torture to death its
creatures.

So, who is the ungrateful, uncompassionate, cruel
animal?.............the answer is clear to me.................

Long live no intelligence...................
